NUOVA BELLEZZA
di Romano Pisciotti
Non c’è mare uguale
onda, alba o tramonto,
non c’è giorno
notte o brezza
che possano ripetersi.
Non ci sono attimi
che possano assomigliarsi
solo i pensieri ritornano,
uguali
come i sogni,
non lasciano il buio
ne la mente
ripetendosi ostinatamente
in danze irreali
e vecchie paure.
Guardando il mare
posso dimenticare
il tormento e l’ansia
di giorni ingiusti.
L’arcobaleno di colori,
odore, sale
e le notti profonde
entrano negli occhi
a pulire l’anima.
Davanti al mare
non servirà ricordare
vivremo i momenti
più belli di sempre
di nuova bellezza.

The Simpsons is an American animated sitcom created by Matt Groening for the Fox Broadcasting Company. The series is a satirical depiction of working-class life, epitomized by the Simpson family, which consists of Homer, Marge, Bart, Lisa, and Maggie. The show is set in the fictional town of Springfield and parodies American culture and society, television, and the human condition.
I Simpson (The Simpsons) è una sitcom animata statunitense, creata dal fumettista Matt Groening nel 1987 per la Fox Broadcasting Company. La serie è una parodia satirica della società e dello stile di vita statunitense, impersonificati dalla famiglia Simpson, protagonista dell’opera, composta da Homer e Marge e dai loro tre figli Bart, Lisa e Maggie che hanno numerosi rapporti con gli altri diversi da loro. Ambientato in una cittadina statunitense chiamata Springfield, il cartone tratta in chiave umoristica molti aspetti della condizione umana, tra cui la cultura, la società e la stessa televisione.
In addition to ruining beautiful photos, we understand that if someone makes money for it, people like the , that the sitcom wants to denounce … in the near future world it is clear that the stupid will win.
Oltre a rovinare delle belle foto, si capisce che, se qualcuno fa soldi per questo, alla gente piace lo stile di vita americano che la sitcom vuole denunciare…nel mondo futuro prossimo è palese che gli stupidi vinceranno
GOVERNO ISTITUZIONALE: è un governo che, nell’impossibilità di avere un governo politico, è guidato da una figura istituzionale (di solito uno dei due presidenti di Camera o Senato).
IMPOSSIBILITA’….c’è qualche impedimento per le elezioni? C’è qualche impedimento per la democrazia?
Per qualche alchimia antidemocratica, in Italia, si vogliono impedire le elezioni e già gli gnomi della politica sono al lavoro per costruire le basi di un Governo Istituzionale.
Grillini e Renziani vogliono impedire le elezioni, ancora una volta si tenta di formare un Governo…di fantasia.
La maggioranza degli elettori è stanca della sudditanza imposta dalla fantafinanza attraverso i mercati: Unione Europea e globalizzazione sono stati per troppo tempo gli sponsor della demolizione democratica degli Stati.
Romano Pisciotti: “Ci siamo dimenticati che la politica deve guidare i mercati e non viceversa!!!”

Our name is “Gift of God” gift of God that men are free to pray according to their beliefs and traditions. We are children of our fertile land, sons of the great river and the fresh salty breeze blowing on the lagoon, we are the daughters of the green hills and the silent desert: we are all sons and daughters of Greater Nigeria.
We were born of love and we came to the world with the strength of the waves and the courage of free lions in the forest.
Our desire and our right is to live and grow in peace, our youth and our ambitions are in the hands of our fathers, hands that we do not want stained with blood. Our future is the future of this country, as much as our past was the womb of our mothers and the pride of this nation.
If we want a great free Africa we can not allow the men of this wonderful land to kill themselves by tribal rivalries, religious differences or absurd claims … we will not allow it!
We ask the women and men of this country to live in peace, for their joy and our future and the future of our children and their children … until the great river flows.

RED SKIES
Red skies of Africa:
enchanted sunsets
as a prelude
to hunting nights
among the stars.
Songs of passion
from peoples who,
in the darkness,
watch over their dead.
Silent warriors
seek the pride lost
in the eddies of oil
and in the hatred
between brothers.
The great rivers
drag shame to the sea,
but they can not
wash consciences.

Cieli di Africa rossi di tramonti incantati, preludono a notti di caccia tra le stelle e canti di passione di popoli che vegliano nel buio i loro morti. Silenziosi guerrieri cercano l’orgoglio disperso nei gorghi di petrolio e nell’odio tra fratelli. I grandi fiumi trascinano al mare la vergogna, ma non possono lavare le coscienze.

Il concetto di bellezza è soggettivo, ma è allo stesso tempo legato a dei canoni dettati dalla nostra cultura. Quando si parla di bellezza in senso estetico, ogni popolazione ha delle regole diverse. Secondo alcuni filosofi la bellezza è ovunque, per altri non esiste.
The concept of beauty is subjective, but at the same time it is linked to the canons dictated by our culture. When talking about beauty in an aesthetic sense, each population has different rules. According to some philosophers, beauty is everywhere, for others it does not exist.

I like to watch Nigerian girls and boys walking along the muddy streets of Lagos with colourful clothes or an immaculate white, at their feet the inevitable flip-flops: hopping between one bumpy relief and another. How they avoid car splashes or how they do not lose the whiteness of their shirts is a curious observation.
Many of them are dressed like the young people from all over the world: blue jeans and T-shirt. They throw an eye to where to put their feet and an eye to the chaotic and not very polite traffic of the street.
I find myself interpreting their thoughts…what do they think about their future, their studies or work?
Nigeria is a country that is very widespread and varied in nature, ethnicity, languages and religions … but it is a country where poverty is widespread: I know well that those kids do not have, at home, a rich wardrobe and many of them do not even have a house like us Europeans we are used to having.
Many of these children are students, but the level of schools and universities is still far from guaranteeing a serious preparation for the world of work and often these bodies are not able to guarantee a level of general education to put the children in conditions, to grab their dreams.
The economy of the country is growing, but it is still far from being able to guarantee, to the growing population, a quality of life that we could define as sufficient.
Even in my country, in Italy, the economy does not seem to be able to guarantee young people a better existence or similar to that of their parents … for the first time, after many decades, life has become less rich in opportunity, despite the rampant technology. The indiscriminate globalization, more financial than industrial, has turned out to be a scourge for the Italian economy and not only for Italy. Nigeria itself suffers because of the market-run world; we all suffer from the dark evils of the liquid world of finance that is drowning more than it has brought out.
We are losing sight of education and civil life in exchange for artificial well-being. Education seems to be worsening all over the world and a smartphone is replacing thought.
In any case, in my country, the situation is not as serious as in many African countries, where there are fewer smartphones, but fewer opportunities to increase personal knowledge … I wonder if those girls and boys I watch on the streets of Lagos, are more interested in an “iPhone” or their dreams are those already overcome by young Europeans or Americans…!?…Perhaps the young Nigerians dream of having a home, a car and fashionable shoes … everything “we “take for granted and no longer as a dream.
Unfortunately, many Nigerians have the illusion of finding their fortune trying to reach European countries, but they are, fortunately, a small part of them. These guys I’m watching, have energy and show a wonderful smile … their bright eyes, that know how to avoid puddles, know how to see a better future; their hearts know how to handle difficulties and they will build a better country: they are warriors of everyday life!
A few minutes and, between a hop and the other, the guys disappear from my sight … my car is crumbled by traffic, while they go fast.
My job here is also for a better country … I wish you all the best, lovely gazelles of the streets, the future is definitely yours.
